Critics Review
Always popular, always a favourite. And ALWAYS full of adventure– Dan Smith , The Big Issue
The prize must go to the adventures of George and co. Listed as one of the 100 Best Children’s Books Ever (Novels) * The Daily Telegraph *One of the 50 books every child should read by Age 16 * essexbaby.co.uk *Famous Five books are essential for all children’s bookshelves * MADEFORMUMS.COM *I thought this series was wonderful. It struck me as a great injustice that they were having adventures and I wasn’t – Alexander McCall Smith * The Sunday Telegraph *Dangerous criminals are no match for children and a dog. Adults are useless * Country Life *Always popular, always a favourite. And ALWAYS full of adventure – Dan Smith * The Big Issue *This book is so exciting you’ll want to play detective yourself * The Week Junior *As the first set of ‘grown-up’ books I ever discovered I could read on my own, the Famous Five have a very special place in my heart. I still remember running through to my parents’ room to tell them I could read well enough to go adventuring with the Five without their help. And with 21 books in the series, I had plenty of escapades to look forward to! * The List (Glasgow & Edinburgh) *I loved so much of Enid Blyton … the Famous Five were my favourites of all, so much so that I demanded to be called George for most of my early childhood * East Anglian Daily Times *Pacey and passionate, this truly exceptional book tells a tale that truly needs to be heard * Lovereading4kids *
